Family Camp

The 1999 family camp was held at Fort Parker State Park near Mexia, TX. Many family members were there and stayed in cabins next to the lake, and one family slept in a tent. The best food was served this weekend by none other than Craig Cox and others. The Saturday dinner was rotisserie chicken, lasagna, and macaroni and chesse. Sunday's breakfast was eggstrada, cereal, and oatmeal. During Saturday's festivities, scouts made a rope bridge, a compass course, first aide station, and a station about how to set up your tent and how to build a fire. Also we had a Court of Honor Saturday night with an inspiring message from Mr. Kelly, followed by a camp fire and skits. The chubby bunny marshmellow eating contest was won by Mr. Lassiter. Sunday morning we were awakened by a cannon blast to eat breakfast, had flag lowering, and then left for home.
